Having spent most of 2023 studying the Cayman Islands economy and actively engaging with Caymanians and policymakers, I feel compelled to share my analysis and insights. I am grateful that Cayman has a robust statistical framework thanks to the ESO, more so than many in the Caribbean - and this facilitates our ongoing analysis. After hearing about the problems that exist and analyzing the data, I hope to dispel some possible misconceptions about how the economy functions. I also share my ideas on solutions that could be transformative for the Cayman Islands towards becoming more inclusive, sustainable (fiscally, demographically, and ecologically), and prosperous.
